Power Book Titanium Broken Screen

I got this laptop from my job bec they dont want or have the money to fix it. It works fine as it should except for the screen half of it works. I just want to ask what to do, invest the money to see if the repairs is just a cable or a new screen or ebay without the software cds. Since its an old laptop, would be good enought for my designs stuff and I was planning on getting a laptop but way later in the year. Anyway if you seen this problem happen in a laptop or may have an idea what it can be please feel free to give me a post.

Hmmm those screens are 500 bucks forgot repairing it I am most likely going to sell it to them, is there a way to erase a computer since I dont have the OS for the laptop, Just use another OSX disc and erase it from there?
or get a system disk.
